Hello everyone,
Our building contract includes gas with hot water heating and underfloor heating.
For an additional 12,000€ (approximately 13,000 USD) we would get an air-to-water heat pump. From our perspective, that’s too expensive, right?
The idea was to have gas installed first, then sell the gas boiler later and install the heat pump afterward (by outsourcing the work separately).
Is it that simple to swap, or is our idea missing something?

Of course, I don’t know whether or how this is enforced or what happens in case of violations.
Currently, according to the Energy Saving Ordinance 2009 (§ 10), owners of buildings are required that "boilers fueled by liquid or gaseous fuels and installed or set up before October 1, 1978 may no longer be operated."
Of course, I don’t know whether or how this is enforced or what happens in case of violations.

Whether or how That is quite straightforward. The chimney sweep has to come regularly anyway and will take care of that.

The energy saving regulation and all that fuss can go away... a heating system runs, and as long as it runs, nobody needs to tinker with it. If it acts up, I call the technicianMy comment was not just about silly regulations. But if you want to claim warranty, the system must have been "serviced" according to the manufacturer's instructions.
